“…Even though Schwab et al [13] considered the differences they observed in serum and LDL-cholesterol of minor clinical significance in humans, this suggestion was not based on histological data analysis. In our case, results from a study published by our team [48] indicated that even with higher levels of atheroprotective HDL [44], the betaine-fed pigs presented larger (P,0.01) atherosclerotic lesion areas in the left coronary arteries (higher artery total thickness, higher tunica adventitia and media thickness, and more animals with type II lesions) than those in the control group. This suggests that betaine presents disadvantages when used as an Hcy-lowering agent, even more if we consider that it is not firmly established that Hcy lowering indeed reduces risk of CVD [2].…”

“…In the fasted period, this could reflect a decrease in tissue and hepatic removal of these particles. Betaine decreased Hcy in plasma but could also modify cysteine metabolism, and particularly membrane proteins which are rich in this amino acid, such as for example scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) which is involved in the uptake of HDL particles [44]. To our knowledge, there are no available data relating plasma HDL-cholesterol level and betaine supplementation on this animal model but recently, Hamelet et al [45] found that hyperhomocysteinemia in cystathionine beta synthase (CBS)-deficient mice significantly increased the hepatic expression of the SR-BI.…”

“…Furthermore, the scavenger receptor SR-BI, an HDL receptor [1], plays an important role in plasma cholesterol regulation, specially in rodents [5]. However, only one recent study [39] has reported that saturated fatty acids modify the expression of SR-BI compared to polyunsaturated fatty acids.…”
